Description:1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 Seldom does a new car arrive on the market more keenly anticipated than the new Chevrolet Camaro. Its predecessor, the second series Camaro introduced in 1970, was an act that would be tough to follow: astonishingly beautiful styling, (to quote our 1970 test), good enough to go 11 years with only minor changes; handling and roadability that set new standards for U.S. cars back then, and a combination of driving feel, instrumentation, and seating position that appealed even to diehard enthusiasts of European cars. From Road and Track, June 1982 For consignment, a 1982 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 showing 74,831 miles on the odometer but the miles are not actual. According to our consignor, it\'s packing a 358ci V8 powerplant, and it\'s built with some go fast components we\'ll cover below. It also borrows a hue from the manufacturer of world renown sports cars, a little company called Porsche. Exterior Guards Red is the color of choice here, and it\'s the same, familiar color you\'d see on 911\'s. This car lacks any Z28 demarcation, period stripes or stacked colors, and as such presents cleanly as a fully red machine. Without the color changes, the front fascia and its intake ducts look more cavernous and there\'s no front plate to break up the visual continuity, however two holes where the Camaro crest would be is evident. Above the face, a cowl hood rises proudly and is kept in place with a pair of hood pins. Out back, it\'s more of a sleeper as there\'s no wing, no badging, and just the attractive multi colored tail lights taking center stage. From the side, 15-inch Centerline wheels with staggered size tires create a slightly raked stance and the glass T-tops creates a visual break in the red while being framed by the color. Imperfections include some separation of the paint in a panel curve, large chips, drill holes on the trunk lid, and various small scratches. Interior Our first view is that of the door panels configured in a variety of grays with black in vinyl, velour, and carpet, looking every bit of its 1982 vintage but clean and intact. Next up is the fat tan wrap around the roll cage, yes, roll cage, and the F-body gray cloth bucket seats look standard except for the hole in the driver\'s side upper where a five point harness is mounted, color matched to the exterior. The rear 2+2 s are in place, countered around the rear braces of the roll cage. The standard steering wheel is also in place but a ProComp tach takes up the right position on the instrument cluster while the very cool dual speedometer is in place that shows mph and km/h and the same time with a double sided rotating needle. Water and oil gauges are now in the center over an AM/FM/Cassette radio along with a Kenwood equalizer in front of a Hurst Quarter Stick race shifter with no faceplate. The raised center console is over gray plush carpet and GM branded rubber mats, all in good condition with signs of usage. The hatch area is carpeted in gray and well and makes room for the roll cage braces. Drivetrain Under the raised hood, we find a glossy red engine bay housing the 358ci V8 with Wiseco 12.5-1 pistons and a Lunati solid cam, topped by a Holley 750 cfm 4-barrel carb and an Edelbrock Victor Jr. intake manifold. A TH350 3-speed automatic transmission sends power to the Currie build axle, a Ford 9 with 3.70 gears. Polished Hooker headers are on board to send spent gas southward and power brakes are assigned as front disc and rear drum. Undercarriage Driver quality underneath with areas of typical surface rust and patina, as well as residual oil on the pan and tranny pan, but otherwise dry underneath and road dirt free. There\'s a driveshaft loop in place and an external fuel pump is mounted to a tubular frame. The dual exhaust flows through wide pipes and enters Borla mufflers just before dumping below the car. Suspension is made up of coil springs in front and a torque arm and coil springs in the
